What is the car's speed at the bottom of the dip?The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier thantheir true weight a

Rashid [163]

Answer:

v = 14 m/s

Explanation:

given,

radius of dip = 40 m

The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier than their true weight.

Apparent weight

$A = W + \dfrac{W}{2}$

$A =\dfrac{3W}{2}$

$A =\dfrac{3mg}{2}$

When the car is at the bottom, the weight will be acting downwards and the centripetal force will also be acting downward where as Normal force which is apparent weight will be acting in upward direction.

now,

$N = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\dfrac{3mg}{2} = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\dfrac{mg}{2} = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{rg}{2}}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{40\times 9.8}{2}}$

v = 14 m/s

A car initially traveling 7 m/s speeds up uniformly at a rate of 3 m/s2 until it reaches a velocity of 22 m/s. How much time did

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

t = 5 s

Explanation:

Data:

Initial Velocity (Vo) = 7 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²
Final Velocity (Vf) = 22 m/s
Time (t) = ?

Use formula:

$\boxed{t=\frac{Vf - Vo}{a}}$

Replace:

$\boxed{t=\frac{22\frac{m}{s} -7\frac{m}{s}}{3\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

Solve the subtraction of the numerator:

$\boxed{t=\frac{15\frac{m}{s}}{3\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{t=5\ s}$

How much time did it take the car to reach this final velocity?

It took a time of <u>5 seconds.</u>

A mass on a horizontal surface is connected to the spring and pulled to the right along the surface stretching the spring by 25

solniwko [45]

Answer:

320 N/m

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, we deduce that

F=kx where F is applied force, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression of spring

Making k the subject of formula then

$k=\frac {F}{x}$

Conversion

1m equals to 100cm

Xm equals 25 cm

25/100=0.25 m

Substituting 80 N for F and 0.25m for x then

$k=\frac {80}{0.25}=320N/m$

Therefore, the spring constant is equal to 320 N/m

When visiting some countries, you may see a person balancing a load on the head. Explain why the center of mass of the load need

Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)
